When testing out different recipes you never know which ones will be good, and which ones will be amazing. We are happy to report that this recipe is amazing! If you've never had lamb, or lamb chops don't be nervous. We like to think of lamb as a mix of beef and pork. Because petite lamb rib chops resemble a lollipop with a perfect nugget of meat on one end and a convenient bone “handle” on the other. Ask your butcher to french the lamb chops—that is, scrape the bone clean of fat and gristle. Or do it yourself. Make sure you get enough because these little chops will go as quick as 3 shakes of a lambs tail.

In a small saucepan, sauté the onion and garlic in 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat until softened and translucent: Do not let brown.

Transfer to a blender jar. Add the soy sauce, vinegar, rosemary, mustard, and Worcestershire and blend. Season to taste with black pepper. Slowly drizzle in the remaining olive oil while the machine is running until the sauce is emulsified. Add a tablespoon of water if the sauce is too thick. Set aside.

If you are cutting the chops yourself use a sharp knife, and starting at the top of the bone, then making a u shape like the pictures below. You can scrape off any excess fat or grisle with the sharp side of the knife

When ready to cook, start the Traeger grill on Smoke with the lid open until the fire is established (4 to 5 minutes). Set the temperature to 450 degrees F (or High) and preheat, lid closed, for 10 to 12 minutes. Brush the lamb chops on both sides with olive oil and then season generously with salt and pepper. Grill for 4 to 6 minutes per side, or until done to your liking—135 degrees F for medium-rare. Because the chops are so small they won't take long to cook, so make sure you don't forget about them on the Traeger.

Serve with the Rosemary Sauce for dipping. This Rosemary Sauce is awesome! You can put it on beef, fish, or even chicken. We think it goes perfectly with these tender lamb chops! Please comment, and let us know what you think.

What makes these grills different you ask? Well these limited edition grills have a sleek metallic blue paint color, and a new stamped Traeger logo stainless steel lid that really brings out the awesome metallic blue paint. We also decided to add an extra grilling rack inside for more grilling room, for those big holiday, and summer parties.

The most asked question we get from Traeger fans is "how long should I cook it?" We put together a little guide to help you plan the cooking time of your turkey. Make sure to give yourself an hour incase your bird is not cooking as fast of the guide says, and also for the all important resting time.

Everyone loves a good smoked turkey! Keep in mind when smoking a turkey it makes the skin a little rubery. Use some butter on the outside to try and crisp up the skin. With that being said, nothing tastes better than a perfectly smoked turkey!
